If:
- you deleted the branch from the remote
Just push your local branch to the remote.
- you deleted the branch from the local repo only
Just checkout the remote branch again. If you had local changes that
are not in the remote, continue below.
- you deleted the branch from local and it did not exist in the
remote, or you also deleted from the remote
Check "git reflog" and see if the commits to the deleted branch still
exist. If they do you can just "checkout" them again.
- if none of the above applies, well, I think you just lost the code.
